    They don't release all eps at once do they? It is drip feed one a week like the rest of the streamers?

    • Fuzor on 30/07/2024 - 20:13

      All of the platforms have learned not to release all at once to combat the churning community. But Prime is such good value, I fail to see a reason to churn.

      • knobbs on 30/07/2024 - 20:15
        +3

        No interest in churning just wanting to know if I have to wait 2 months for the whole season or not. I have held a prime membership for years.

          Judging by season 1, its going to drag out through to end of October.

        Wouldn’t people churning simply subscribe when the season finishes?

        • AngusD on 31/07/2024 - 08:12
          +3

          That's what I do with Binge. I wait until there are 2 or 3 shows with full seasons ready to watch, subscribe for like 1-2 months then drop it again until next year.

          That’s what I do with ATV+, and Stan.

          I don’t bother doing that with prime as I have it for the deliveries anyway, and let’s face it, it’s only $79 a year.

            @entropysbane: Same. Skeletor's prime sub has primarily resulted in this.

              @Skullytor: Damn, that takes me back. I had the Castle Grayskull and figurines when I was a kid. A mate had a He-Man whose chest would flip around to show armour damage when hit. I was jealous, but I had a Moss-man with furry armour (not that furry, you sickos), so everything was good.

        There is bugger all to watch. And buying shit you don't need isn't exactly a win

      I agree. I get posts notifying you a movie is coming to a streaming service, that might save a few bucks renting it. I don't get advertising TV shows on TV/streaming services though, that post feels like a TV guide not a bargain. Free tonight the ABC News!

        IMO it started bad but picked up. Better than the Hobbit movies, in that it at least takes itself seriously. Not as good as the LOTR movies though.

          "picked up"? As in started bad and built momentum until it was laughingly horrible?

          How it got a season 2 I'll never know but the prolefeed factory never seems to stop these days.

              @entropysbane: I'd be surprised if it makes it that far. Though I guess in theory they could totally revamp the mess that it is and put someone competent in charge. it worked with Picard Season 3 so it's not like there isn't a precedent. :)

          • trigomorph on 31/07/2024 - 11:05

            @EightImmortals: With the amount of money they spent on the 1st one, i think this is there regular tax write off. Its a shame they had to do ot for a series with such potential

          • CodeExplode on 31/07/2024 - 22:25

            @EightImmortals: Meh, as a reader of the books I enjoyed it after a wonky start. Lots of great stuff like Elrond in the dwarf city, the halflings and their unexpectedly dark travelling culture, etc.

            It wasn't perfect, but nothing is.

    Not a deal, usually I like the heads up for blockbusters coming to streaming services but this is the normal way this content is consumed, you didn't save me a trip to the cinema or anything and it's not a major change to how it's consumed like when Prime took the Cricket World Cup off of Foxtel.

      This. This is just regular content. It's not a deal, it's not a big time movie coming out. It's just 'hey guys a new season of a TV show I like is coming".

          Do you think they secretly hate it as much as we do, and are trying to drive it into the ground? Thats the only way to explain the shot, the black elves, the gay relationships with the elves etc etc etc

      Prime Australia is ridiculously cheap considering what it comes included with.

      Amazon postage, including international postage
      prime deals
      Prime music
      Prime video 4k
      Twitch
      Prime books

      $6.58/month ($79/year). Netflix with ads is 20% more than all that

      A few bucks extra losses the ads.

        Prime music is limited as you can't choose what you listen to, it's always on shuffle of similar music, you have to pay for "prime music unlimited" for unlimited access.
        Also now that they have introduced a ad free tier to Prime Video (which they are being sued because breach of contract) they also removed dolby atmos & dolby vision from the base subscription.
        also it's now $9.99 per month or $12.98 ad free or $79 a year.

      Look in all honesty, I don't mind and care, what irked me, was the poor casting in general and QUALITY. Galadriel was a shocker in S1.

    I very much enjoyed S1 after a rewatch, by simply skipping the Harfoot scenes, was recommended by a friend and it made the show immediately better.

    It's sad that one of the best things from S1, Adar, will not be in S2 (i.e. he quit because he didn't like the writers).

        I think the difference is that this isn’t a saving or bargain, it’s the only way you can watch the show. Other sub deals may save you money by not buying or renting the movie.

        You reply is so irrelevant.

        The point I was trying to make is the inconsistency of mod's treatment about this kind of deal. People should just start making TV series announcements as a deal.

        Streaming shows and movies have been consistent for a couple years now.

        So what? You still have to pay to watch this series, why is this a deal? It's never out in the cinemas. Then, Can I post deadpool&wolverine movie as a deal too now?

    I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here: it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you even knew what you had you patented it and packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you're selling it, you want to sell it!

    Most disappointing series of an absolutely classic set of movies. I tried very hard with many episodes but was horrified how boring and slow and useless it was. Agree with comments above that it was terribly cast but the characters are just try hard and lame..

    Mind boggling to me how they spent so much money on it and agree, why they're bothering with the season two?! they should have gone hard into the orcs and the scarier , evil stuff straight away!! Reminds me how good Game of Thrones and even House of the Dragon is…still yet to watch season 2 but looking forward even though S1 wasn't GoT, still very good

    • EightImmortals on 31/07/2024 - 08:36

      House of the Dragon S2 is a bit slow IMO it's started to get a bit more interesting over the last 2 episodes or so. Still better than this tripe and anything 'star wars' these days.

        Hand to god, I'm a big LOTR fan I think I got to about episode 5 or 6 before pulling the pin. Not the worst show I've ever seen, like I'd prefer this over CSI: Miami, for instance. RoP was definitely better than that. I will probably watch a couple of episodes of the second season to see if anything has changed.
